Blue Hats je jazzová kapela inspirovaná kultovním albem Blue Hats skupiny Yellowjackets, na které odkazuje i svým názvem. Členové kapely se potkali díky podobnému hudebnímu vkusu a společnou řeč nacházejí především ve skladbách Russella Ferranteho, ale také autorů jako Bob Mintzer, Joshua Redman či Bob Berg. Repertoár doplňují i skladby českých, zatím méně známých autorů Otty Oranyho a Roberta Štolby. Kapela účinkovala v několika jazzových klubech a na jazzových festivalech, kde také doprovázela přední české jazzové zpěvačky. Kapelu tvoří Michal Doležal (klávesy), Jan Kusovský (baskytara), Zdeněk Puchmeltr (bicí) a Marek Buble (saxofony).

The only band on the Czech music scene that is dedicated to an almost missionary promotion of fusion jazz. The name Captain Fingers is borrowed from guitarist Lee Ritenour - originally his nickname. The band is composed of versatile jazz musicians who want to recall the best compositions from the 1980s and 1990s, when jazz was influenced by other musical genres and much new has emerged. Especially thanks to the excellent performance of the band's guitarist Viktor Jerman you will hear songs of the best representatives of fusion jazz such as Fourplay, Steps Ahead, Pat Metheny, Yellowjackets, Jeff Lorber, Lyle Mays, and of course Lee Ritenour and others.
